Abstract

A bridge for a disc brake caliper includes a body defining a first bore disposed about an axis. The first bore includes a plurality of threads. The body further defines a second bore extending radially from an outer surface of the body into the first bore. A tube is received within the first bore and supports a tappet at one end for engaging a friction pad. The tube is configured to receive one end of an adjustment shaft of a friction pad wear adjuster therein. The tube defines a plurality of threads on a radially outer surface configured for engagement with the plurality of threads in the first bore and at least one of the plurality of threads on the first tube defines a plurality of teeth. A detent extends through the second bore and engages the teeth to inhibit rotation of the tube within the body.
